Because then stuff will "magically" work in stable, and break in ~arch, and 
you won't know why it's happening.

Instead if you follow the procedure (set the variables) you know that you 
asked for latest version, and you'll be able to check what the problem is.

Yes, I expect automake 1.11 to break even more, as they are coming around.
